Patsy + Benjamin’s Wedding: 8/28/2010 – Greetings from Beijing, China! It’s currently 7AM but alas I’m finally ready to blog Patsy and Ben’s big day from this past weekend. I’ll write about the details of my current trip in another blog post and instead talk about how much fun it was working with Peanut Butter aka Patsy and Ben ;).
They had a super intimate wedding at a beautiful church in Palos Verdes Estates. Their ceremony, overlooking the Pacific Ocean on a beautiful Saturday morning, was filled with their immediate family and closest friends (around 40 guests). Afterwards, we headed out to The Cheesecake Factory in Redondo Beach for a luncheon reception.
We had a lovely cocktail hour followed by the first dance, toasts, and some hilarious games for Patsy, Ben, and all the guests. It was wonderful being treated like a guest and blending in with everyone. The funny thing was both Patsy, Ben, and a few of the guests including Ben’s sister Arlene are all into photography. So we had a good chat about cameras, lenses, and all that good stuff :).
Since Patsy and Ben had a morning ceremony and matinee reception, we had plenty of time afterward for portraits. We actually went back to the church and later Donald Trump Golf Course for photos. Special thanks to the church ladies and security folks at the course course for being so awesome and letting us do our thang. Congrats to Mr. and Mrs. Ting, for being newlyweds and buying a beautiful home! I look forward to seeing you guys at an upcoming photography workshop ;).
Ceremony location: Neighborhood Church in Palos Verdes Estates, CA
Reception location: The Cheesecake Factory in Redondo Beach, CA
